This impressive fortress, perched on the edge of the Firth of Forth, offers breathtaking views and fascinating tales from Scottish history, including its roles in the Outlander series and Mary Queen of Scots.

After exploring the castle, enjoy a short walk across scenic fields to a private farm. Here, you’ll meet three friendly Highland cows, known locally as 'coos.' This rare opportunity lets you interact with these gentle creatures in a tranquil rural setting, making for wonderful photos and lasting memories.
